PERCENTAGE OF DEPENDANT’S PASS HOLDERS LOSING PASSES DUE TO UNFORESEEN CIRCUMSTANCES

MP He Ting Ru

Ms He Ting Ru asked the Minister for Manpower in each of the past five years (a) what is the percentage of Dependant’s Pass holders who lost their passes due to (i) divorce and (ii) death of their spouse respectively; and (b) what percentage of individuals who lost their Dependant’s Passes subsequently obtained (i) employment pass and (ii) S-pass.

Dr Tan See Leng: The Ministry of Manpower does not collect data on whether the cancellations of Dependant’s Passes were due to divorce or death of the main pass holder.
